Dependencies, Tools and Plugins Tapestry Tutorial Loading the Project Into Eclipse
Using the Quickstart Archetype
Before we can get down to the fun, we have to create an empty application. Tapestry uses a feature of Maven to do this: archetypes (a too-clever way of saying "project templates").
What we'll do is create an empty shell application using Maven, then import the application into Eclipse to do the rest of the work.
For the tutorial, we're using a fresh install of Eclipse and an empty workspace at /Users/Howard/Documents/workspace
1
. You may need to adjust a few things for other operating systems or local paths.
From our workspace directory, we'll use Maven to create a skeleton Tapestry project.
Before proceeding, we have to decide on four things: A Maven group id and artifact id for our project, a version, and a base package name.
Maven uses the group id and artifact id to provide a unique identity for the application, and Tapestry needs to have a base package name so it knows where to look for pages and components.
For this example, we'll use the group id com.example, artifact id tutorial1, version 1.0-SNAPSHOT and we'll use com.example.tutorial as the base package.
Our final command line is:
mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeCatalog=http://tapestry.apache.org
It will then prompt you to pick the archetype - choose Tapestry 5.2.5 Quickstart Project, enter the group id, artifact id, version and package when prompted.

h2. Investigating the Generated Artifacts
Maven dictates the layout of the project: * Java source files under {{src/main/java}} * Web application files under {{src/main/webapp}} (including {{src/main/webapp/WEB-INF}}) * Java test sources under {{src/test/java}} * Non-code resources under {{src/main/resources}} and {{src/test/resources}} {info} Tapestry uses a number of non-code resources, such as template files and message catalogs, which will ultimately be packaged into the WAR file alongside the Java classes. {info} Let's look at what the archetype has created for us, starting with the web.xml configuration file: {code:title=src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/web.xml} PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN" "http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd"> tutorial1 Tapestry 5 Application tapestry.app-package com.example.tutorial app org.apache.tapestry5.TapestryFilter app /* {code} This is short and sweet: you can see that the package name you provided earlier shows up as the {{tapestry.app-package}} context parameter; the TapestryFilter instance will use this information to locate the Java classes for pages and components. Tapestry 5 operates as a _servlet filter_ rather than as a traditional _servlet_. In this way, Tapestry has a chance to intercept all incoming requests, to determine which ones apply to Tapestry pages (or other resources). The net effect is that you don't have to maintain any additional configuration for Tapestry to operate, regardless of how many pages or components you add to your application. Tapestry pages minimally consist of an ordinary Java class plus a component template file. In the root of your web application, a page named "Index" will be used for any request that specifies no additional path after the context name.h3. Index Java Class The final piece of the puzzle is the Java class for the page. Tapestry has very specific rules for where page classes go. Remember the package name (configured inside web.xml)? Tapestry adds a sub-package, "pages", to it and the Java class goes there. Thus the full Java class name is org.apache.tapestry5.tutorial.pages.Index. {code:title=src/main/java/com/example/tutorial/pages/Index.java} package org.apache.tapestry5.tutorial.pages; import java.util.Date; /** * Start page of application tutorial1. */ public class Index { public Date getCurrentTime() { return new Date(); } } {code} That's pretty darn simple: No classes to extend, no interfaces to implement, just a very pure POJO (Plain Old Java Object). You do have to meet the Tapestry framework halfway: * You need to put the Java class in the expected package, org.apache.tapestry5.tutorial.pages * The class must be public * You need to make sure there's a public, no-arguments constructor (here, the Java compiler has silently provided one for us) As we saw when running the application, this page displays the current date and time. the {{currentTime}} property is where that value comes from; shortly we'll see how that value is extracted from the page and output. Tapestry always matches a page class to a template; neither is functional without the other. In fact, components within a page are treated the same way (except that components do not always have templates). You will often hear about the [Model-View-Controller pattern|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_view_controller] (MVC). In Tapestry, the page class acts as both the Model (the source of data) and the controller (the logic that responds to user interaction). The template is the View in MVC. As a model, the page exposes JavaBeans properties that can be referenced in the template. Let's look at how the component template builds on the Java class to provide the full user interface. h3. Component Template Tapestry pages are the combination of a POJO Java class with a Tapestry component template. The has the same name as the Java class, but has the extension {{.tml}}. Since the Java class here is com.example.tutorial.pages.Index, the template file will be located at src/main/resource/com/example/tutorial/pages/Index.tml. Ultimately, both the Java class and the component template file will be stored in the same folder within the deployed WAR. Tapestry component templates are well-formed XML documents. This means that you can use any available XML editor. Templates may even have a DOCTYPE or an XML schema to validate the structure of the template. {note} Tapestry parses component templates using a non-validating parser;

This chapter may look long, but almost all of it is one-time setup for Maven and Eclipse. The actual Tapestry part is really small and simple. We will shortly be splitting it into two chapters.
Before we can get down to the fun, we have to create an empty application. Tapestry uses a feature of Maven to do this: archetypes (a too-clever way of saying "project templates").
What we'll do is create an empty shell application using Maven, then import the application into Eclipse to do the rest of the work.
For the tutorial, we're using a fresh install of Eclipse and an empty workspace at /Users/Howard/Documents/workspace
1
. You may need to adjust a few things for other operating systems or local paths.
From our workspace directory, we'll use Maven to create a skeleton Tapestry project.
Before proceeding, we have to decide on four things: A Maven group id and artifact id for our project, a version, and a base package name.
Maven uses the group id and artifact id to provide a unique identity for the application, and Tapestry needs to have a base package name so it knows where to look for pages and components.
For this example, we'll use the group id com.example, artifact id tutorial1, version 1.0-SNAPSHOT and we'll use com.example.tutorial as the base package.
Our final command line is:
mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeCatalog=http://tapestry.apache.org
It will then prompt you to pick the archetype - choose Tapestry 5.2.4 Quickstart Project, enter the group id, artifact id, version and package when prompted.

The first time you use Maven, you'll see quite a bit more output, mostly about downloading all sorts of JARs and other files. These downloaded files are cached locally and will not need to be downloaded again, but you do have to be patient on first use.
After executing the command, you'll see a new directory, tutorial1.
Maven Behind a FirewallIf you are behind a firewall, before running any "mvn" commands, you will need to configure your proxy settings in settings.xml. Here is an example:
settings.xml

myPassword
C:/Documents and Settings/joeuser/.m2/repository
Of course, adjust the localRepository element to match the correct path for your computer.
